Elephants are great travellers
大象喜歡遷徙
and here, in this part of Kenya,
在肯尼亞的這塊區域
they regularly moved from the lowlands up the side to the mountains
他們定期從低地遷到山坡
to feed in the forests up there.
去森林里覓食
But then, the human population of Kenya grew
然而 隨著肯尼亞的人口增加
and roads like this one were constructed,
人們建立了類似這樣的公路
penning the elephants down in the lowland,
使大象被圍困在低地里
where they created havoc amongst the farms.
他們在那里大肆破壞農場
Not only that, there were danger of collisions on the road.
此外 他們還面臨著與車相撞的危險
And then someone suggested building an underpass.
于是有人提出建造一條地下通道
Within 24 hours of it being completed,
完工后的24小時內
one elephant had passed through.
一只大象穿過了通道
And now, all the elephants use that route
如今 所有大象都常在晚上
to go up the mountain, often at night, to feed.
通過這條路上山覓食
Simple ideas like this underpass
建造地下通道這樣的簡單想法
are a lifeline for these elephants,
卻為大象構建了生命線
especially in times of drought.
尤其是在干旱時節
